Cirrhilabrus cenderawasih

Cirrhilabrus cenderawasih is a species of fairy wrasse commonly found on sheltered seaward reefs. It is most abundant below depths of about 35 m and occurs between approximately 22 and 60 m. The species is generally found in Indonesia.^[2] The male Cirrhilabrus cenderawasih is pinkish, fading to white near the belly, which is typical of the complex. A yellow elongated blotch runs along the boundary between the pink and white areas, extending from the pectoral fin to about two-thirds of the body length. The female is entirely pink with a single black spot on the caudal fin. Males reach about 6.5 cm standard length (SL), while females reach about 4.7 cm SL.^[3] Bird's Head Peninsular in the northwest province of West Papua is the epicenter of three reefs.^[2]
